Unexpected Congress by CimmerianWillow (NC-17)

Fandom: HORNBLOWER
Pairing: Bush/Cotard, Horatio/Archie implied
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] cimmerianwillow
Author Website: Vinegar and Sugar
Why this must be read: Because of Archie's absence, and Horatio's intolerable behavior, I was only able to stand maybe 20 minutes of HH3 (episodes "Loyalty" and "Duty"), but CW makes it all better with a post-Loyalty romance that also functions as an LKU (Live Kennedy Universe).

Opposites attract, and her stunning characterization demonstrates that the flamboyant French major is a much better match for Bush than the reserved Hornblower could ever be. Her Cotard is a prancing peacock, yet underneath it all lurks something brooding, bitter and even wise, and her Bush is lonely and subtly tragic. Their personalities clash in unbelievebly amusing and charming dialogue, and when it comes time for them to hit the sheets, you won't be dissappointed!
